Can't Get it Together!
Hi all! This whole year I have not been able to 'get it together'. I have spent short amounts ot fime eating healthy and exercising regularly but it doesn't last. Miraculously, I still weight the same that I did at the first of the year - I have fluctuated some though. I own a rapidly growing jewelry manufacturing company…

Low Carb Pancakes (Gluten Free)
If you're watching your carbs, here's a low carb pancake recipe that I came across (on Pinterest). I tried it this morning and it is awesome! Next time I may increase the cinnamon slightly. I put sugar free strawberry jam on mine but that tripled the carbs - next time I'm going to try the Low Carb Blueberry Syrup recipe at…

Calorie Calculator

Out of curiosity I thought I'd put my information in to see what it said I needed... Computing my age, weight, height, etc...it recommends 1312 calories for me for Extreme Fat…

Sugar Sources

(I don't normally eat much processed sugar but I do eat natural sugars.) I changed my settings & I'm tracking my sugar now. I am surprised to see that I exceed sugar every…

Resting Heart Rate - Interesting Iphone App
I've been looking for an HRM - bought one on Ebay about a week ago - it doesn't work most of the time - gave up on it pretty quickly. Yesterday I was looking at the top 25 apps on my Iphone. I ran across one called "Heart Fitness"...it's supposed to be free. You can download it for free but you can't use it for free - cost…

Vacation Strategies
My dream vacation is 3 1/2 weeks away! (Kauai, Hawaii) ***Happy Dance*** I'm wondering how I'm going to stay on track....I'm going with 11 other people and I know there is going to be lots of food in our house.

I've been doing MFP for four weeks now. Pretty much every day I've been able to stay close to my calorie goal.....until yesterday - I ate almost 500 extra calories and knew what I was doing the whole time and didn't care. I got to thinking about why I did it this morning - my environment is out of control at the moment. I…
